He received the National Award for the film 12th Fail. This film was made by Vidhu Vinod Chopra. He told Vikrant that you are a TV actor. Who will come to watch your film? Now Vikrant has talked about this in an interview with ABP News.

You had no family support. You started with small roles in 2004 and after that it was a long struggle. By the time you reached success, you might have felt that you don’t know whether this industry will support you or not.

What did Vikrant Massey say on the struggle?

Vikrant said, ‘Struggles happen in the lives of all of us. Like you said, everyone has their own struggles. I too have my own. You also have your own. What should I tell?

Then when he was asked whether there was ever any shortage of money. Or has any director ever said that you are a TV actor? On this Vikrant said, ‘Vinod Sir had also said that you are a TV actor. Why would anyone come to the theater to watch your picture? And to some extent this was also true. When we were talking about 12th fail. Long time ago. Meaning, this was one and a half year before the shoot.

Vikrant further said, ‘But if we talk about struggle, no 16 year old child wants to go out of the house and work by his choice. When you get down from the same building and see that your friends are playing cricket and you have to take the train to work. So there are many reasons behind this. You have to support yourself. You have to support your family and your studies. I have no regrets. And as for starting with TV in 2004, it was difficult. Because there was also a belief that TV actors cannot work in films and even if they do, they will have to become friends of the hero. My beginning was also somewhere there. That internal struggle that is going on is still going on today. There are many stories to be told. So the struggle will continue.

‘Eklavya: The Royal Guard’ was also created by the famous producer-director Vidhu Vinod Chopra for films like ‘Parinda’, ‘1942 A Love Story’ and recently ’12th Fail’. However, this film could not show anything special at the box office. In this, Amitabh Bachchan, Saif Ali Khan, Sanjay Dutt, Vidya Balan and Boman Irani played important roles. Earlier in an interview, Vidhu Vinod Chopra told a funny anecdote associated with the film. He had revealed why he had gifted a luxury car worth Rs 4.5 crore to Big B.

Why did Vidhu Vinod Chopra gift Big B car of crores?
Vidhu Vinod Chopra is usually considered a difficult person and he himself made fun of this. He told that when he started shooting for the film, Amitabh Bachchan came for outdoor shooting with very few goods. The filmmaker told during a conversation with Siddharth Kannan that when he asked Bachchan why he was bringing so little stuff, the actor replied, “Jaya told me that I would not be able to tolerate you more than a week.” His prediction proved to be true. Chopra further said, “Actually, our battle started after a week or ten days. But he stayed and completed the film. I gave them a car of Rs 4.5 crore in a gift because they tolerated me. It was a very big thing to tolerate me for a star like him, it was a big thing for him.”

Mother slapped Vidhu Vinod Chopra after gifting a car
In an interview to The Lalantop, Chopra had told that he had gifted the car to Amitabh Bachchan, then why did his mother slap him, he laughed and said, “I will never forget the incident. When I was gifting Amitabh to Amitabh, I took my mother X with me. They came back and came back in my car. Was, he called Big B ‘Lambu’, so I was driving. I said, ‘Yes.’ He replied, ‘Why don’t you take the car yourself?’ I told him that I will buy a car, when the time comes, he replied, ‘It will be of 11 lakhs.’

And I laughed because they did not know that the car was 4.5 crores. I told them the price, and they slapped me and called me ‘stupid’. I will never forget this, because if the money cannot give you happiness if he does not give you happiness. “

Let me tell you that ‘Eklavya: The Royal Guard’ failed at the box office, despite this the film was India’s official entry in Oscar.
